Cheesy Lasagna Soup

This is the perfect soup for a cold winter night...warm, cheesy and filling.  My family LOVES it.  

1 lb. Italian turkey sausage links, casings removed
2 c. onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 c. sliced mushrooms
4 c. chicken broth
15 oz can Italian seasoned diced tomatoes
15 oz can tomato sauce
1 c. bite-sized bow tie or rotini pasta, uncooked
2 c. fresh spinach, chopped
1 c. Shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 c grated Parmesan cheese

In a soup pot over medium heat, crumble sausage and cook until no longer pink; drain.  Add onion, garlic and mushrooms; cook and stir until tender.  Add broth, tomatoes with juice and tomato sauce.  Bring to a boil; add pasta.  Simmer until pasta is just barely tender, about 11 minutes; stir in spinach and cheeses.  Serves 6.  

I double or triple this, cut up a salad and make garlic bread sticks.  It is one of the kids' favorite meals (mine too).
